Public Art Exchange invites you to join your PAX colleagues on a field trip to Scottsdale, Arizona, November 11-13, 2026. This public art adventure will include opportunities to engage with our public art community, presentations by our Scottsdale Public Art and Arizona public art colleagues, a VIP reception, and the chance to explore the art at Canal Convergence, and self-guided and guided tours of art in Scottsdale. This event is not a conference where you will spend most of your time in hotel conference rooms listening to presentations. It’s a public art-focused field trip designed to get you out and exploring Scottsdale and meeting up in person with people who are engaged in the field of public art.
